Wausau, Wisconsin (April 2016) – During the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Convention and Expo in booth #1143, Linetec features its palette
of 17 texture finish colors that mimic the look and feel of natural terra cotta. The textured finishes will be showcased on a wall of metal cladding in a
brickwork pattern.

“Architects like that our faux terra cotta texture colors can be specified on a large variety of shapes and sizes, and on panels
manufactured with recycled aluminum content,” said Jon Close, Linetec’s vice president of sales and marketing. “While this paint finish cannot replicate
all of the properties of terra cotta, we can offer a paint finish on aluminum wall panels that looks and feels like the real thing. As well as a cost that
may better fit projects where terra cotta is desired, but cannot be afforded.”

Compared with true terra cotta, aluminum wall panels painted with
Linetec’s terra cotta finish are lighter weight for easier installation and be delivered in a short lead time.

Linetec’s terra cotta color
finishes use a 70 percent polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) resin-based coating to achieve the highest levels of performance in an exterior environment,
and a texture additive to help replicate the natural feel of terra cotta. Linetec’s terra cotta coatings meet the requirements of the American
Architectural Manufacturers Association’s most stringent, high-performance specification standard, AAMA 2605-13. These architectural finishes are
tested to exhibit outstanding resistance to humidity, color change, chalk, gloss loss and chemicals.

An environmentally responsible
finisher, Linetec safely captures and destroys the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in liquid paints at the factory before arrival on the
building site. These industry-leading practices complement other green building choices and ensure a long-lasting, durable and sustainable finish.

Located in Wisconsin, Linetec serves customers across the
country, finishing such products as aluminum windows, wall systems, doors, hardware and other architectural metal components, as well
as automotive, marine and manufactured consumer goods. The company is a subsidiary of Apogee Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: APOG). Linetec
